Gov. Tom Wolf announced that the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, through the Federal Emergency Management Agency, has awarded $4.2 million in Nonprofit Security Grant Program funding to dozens of nonprofits located in Pennsylvania.
Bensalem Kollel, Synagogue and Outreach Center is receiving $91,366.
“Pennsylvania’s diverse bounty of cultures are too often the targets of hate crimes,” said Wolf. “This $4.2 million federal investment builds on the more than $15 million I’ve invested at the state level to protect our people. It is my hope that one day the goodness of humanity will suffice, but until then we will continue supporting and investing in those who face unfair prejudice solely because of their race, religion, disability or sexual orientation.”
